III.
On tho next- day, as others had ex
pected, May Fielding was too prostrated
by grief to leave tho house.
Ono of tho servants was dispatched to
be present at tho magisterial examina
tion; but long before he returned Mr.
Armstrong rode over on horseback. .
ilo was received in the drawing room
by Mrs. Raymond and Clare, who seemed
to havo quito recovered her Usual placid
ity and calm, though she exhibited signs
of interest as the lawyer entered hur
riedly. Ho gl.inced anxiously round tho room
as ho entered.
"Where .is Miss Fielding?" ho asked.
"I trust sho is not ill."
"She is quito prostrated with grief, I
am .sorry to say," replied Mrs. Raymond
anxiously; "but what news do you bring
us, good or badr
"Well, it is very much as I anticipat
ed, except in ono particular," Baid Paul
Armstrong. "There was a more formal
examination, for ' the injured woman
nuito lost her senses heforo mornimr.
though alio declared sho could recognize
him at once as her husband by some
marks upon his arm. She was too far
gone to say exactly what she meant, but
ono of tho attendants caught the word
dagger," and there is certainly on' his
arm the- mark of an anchor and a dag
ger very plainly tattooed."
"That may bo only a coincidence.
said Mrs. Itaymond. "But what does ho
say?"
'By my advice ho said nothing," said
tho lawyer. "We simply plead not
guilty,' declare tho chargo to bo prepos
terous, and await tho moment when tlus
woman shall make tho full declaration
against us."
Aud from sheer force of habit tho law
yer lapsed into the dry business tone ho
adopted in speaking to Ins general list
or clients, or when instructing counsel.
"I have no hopeful message, then, for
May?" said his hostess, who was anxious
chiefly on her account, and did not seem
to dare to f aco tho wistful, yearning oyes
without somo word of comfort.
"Well, yes," said Paul Armstrong,
with a smile. "You can tell her that
Guy is in excellent spirits; that ho treats
the affair with scorn, and is quite pro
pared to face it in every way. 'Tell
May,' ho said, as I left him, 'that she
must bear up. It is only a postpone
ment ot our happiness.
IIo chanced to glanco at Claro as ho
spoke, nnd what he saw there throw a
new light on tho subject; ho saw tho
vengeful gle am of her oyes, tho sudden
rush or color to lior cheeks, to bo sue
'cecdod by a deadly pallor.
"Oh, the wind seta in that quarter,
does it?" bo said to himself. "I begin to
seo daylight now. alio knows some
thing, and is going to use her knowledge
as a trump card."
"Well," ho said aloud, as ho roso to so,

Fielding, and tell her on my behalf that

.when put to tho test.
"It is bast not. to bo over confident,"
said (Jlare, with a glance of meaning In
uer uarn oyes.
'No, wo lawyers are never that," said
Paul Armstrong. "Fear not, Miss Ray
mond, Guy L'Estrango shall not suffer
through that. I shall search out ovory
atom of evidence, for and against If
you have any to give, pray let me know
it at once.
"I do not understand you." sho aaid-
rislng, "Ifanoy.I hoar May's bell.' Good
day, Mr.' Armstrong," and she quitted
uie room.
As she did so the lawyer plucked up
courage.
"Mr, uaymond," , he said, "your
daughter's manner puzzles roe. Do you
think die knows anything, and is keen
ing it baok from feelings of delioaoy or
or otiierwtfer"
The last word was stommored out in-
stead of the oondemnatpry expression
wniou rose to ins tins.
Mrs. Raymond looked simply aston-
isntu.
"Really, Mr. Armstrong," she mid,
"you must be dreaming. Clare is very
much upset, of course, at the turn events
have taken, but she knows nothing' more
man ittie liae heard from you. fciho haa

"Ahl said the lawyer, "I though'
she might. But you see we men of ttye
law catch at a straw in a case of tins
kind. I don't quite sfo my way oleir
yet, of course; but it must come right jn
the end. Tell Mbw May that."
Ha shook hands with Mrs. Raymond

gayety of manner.

lie determined, at any rate, to sound
Guy on tbe subject.
Guy was takinir tbe whole matter very
well, couRlering nU things.
But be could not help being oJlvo to
the fact tlmt liis was a position of great
danger.
The evidence at present was dead
against him in every way.
The very fact of the marks upon his
arm having been spot en ot oy tlio
woman without her liaving had a chance
of seeing them, was strong proof of the
truth of her story proof wliicli ho
scorned unable tp get over, oven in bh
own mind.
Of courso tho whole affair was a
puzzle.
At least, it was thus ho spoke nnd or-
guoa with His lawyer; ana though i'aul
Armstrong, listening and looking Into
tho open, honest face, could not avoid
believing him innocent, still ho was
compelled to acknowledge that part of
the whole position.
On leaving Raymond Lodge ho pro
ceeded at once to tho prison, whero he
found Guy, jmo and distrosscd, but out
wardly calm.
"Well, how are they all?" he asked.
"Eretty much as might bo oxpected,"
said Mr. Armstrong. "Of course, Miss
Fielding feels your position acutely;
but it U Claro Raymond whom I can
not understand. Her manner is so
strange; she seems to be keeping some
thing back. Have you oxcuso my ask
ing the question havo you over given
her reason to Supposo that or that sho
might have occupied tho position now
held by Miss Fielding?"
Guy glanced up at him in great sur
prise.
For a moment tho question seemed to
be utterly absurd.
lie chanced to glance at Clare as he spoke.
But in a moment there flashed across
his mind a hundred things which at
tlio time he had never observed looks,
words, remarks, tho bitterness of which
he had not been able to understand when
uttered.
Well." ho said, "it may bo so. But
this I can truthfully swear; nover, by
word or deed, did I ever rrive Clare Ray

bridegroom's liouso.
Tlio pipers always como first in tho

Then comes a bevy of gorgeously dressed
damsels, sparkling witli silver orna

bride follow.
Tho procession stops in f font of the
bridegroom's houso, and tho girl's friends

pipers march off on ono side, whilo tho
bridegroom lifts tho girl from tho mule
and holds her in his arms. The girl's

Wellington's Plans.
Before tho battle of Waterloo, no ono
was probably moro uneasy than Lord
Uxbridge, who, if Wellington should be
killed, would be called upon to succeed
him in command, and-who know nothing
whatever about the duko s plans.
"I am in a very difficult position," he
said to a friend. "If any accident hap
pens to tho duko, J. shall lind myself com
mander-in-chief. I would give. anything
in the world to kiow theduko's projects,
and yet I dare not ask him what I ought.
to do,'
After somo consultation on tho subject,
thoy went together to Wellington and
frankly told him tho difficulty in hand.
Tlio duko listened without impatience,
and at tho end of Lord Uxhridge's speech,
ho said, calmly: "Who will attack tho
first to-morrow, I or Bonaparte?"
"Bonaparte," replied Lord TJxbridge.
"Well," continued tho duke, "Bona
parto has not giv i me any idea of his
projects, and, as my plans will depend
upon his, how can you expect mo to tell
you what mino are"
ixirti uxiinuge nowcu and made no
reply. The duko rose, and continued,
touching him in a friendly way on tlio
shoulder:
"There is one thing certain, Uxbridge
that is, that whatever happens, you
and l will do our duty.
He then shook his hand warmly, and
they separated, Lord TJxbridgo no wiser
than before, yet feeling that Wellington
had trusted him exactly as far as his
reticent nature would allow.
Yet the great duko did depend in
great moasuro upon tho application of
common senso to tne needs or tho mo
ment. When he was once asked how ho
succeeded in conquering Napoleon's mar
shals, ouo after another, ho-replled:
"They planned their campaigns just
as you might make a splendid set of har

bold reuiL .ly as a but resort, and ordered
a teaspoouful of pulverized sugar wet
with an equal volume of wine vinegar,

A Public Scrtloo.
Dr. C. W. Dullea, Of Philadelphia, haa
dono a public service for which he do
serves thanks. A liarrowing dispatch
was scut from a western town telling
how a young girl hod becu buried nlivo,
every ono supposing her to bo dead. Dr.
Dulles took tho trouble to writo to re
sponsible people in tho town named, and
learned that there was not a word of
truth in tlio story. Moro recently an
otlicr similar story woo sent from Spring
field, U., and tho doctor investigated
that also. It proved to bo a Ho llko tho
other. Tbo probabilities nro thai every
such story would prove to bo equally do-
void of tho fact if it was investigated.
And tlio samo might be said of tho stories
about snakos in people's stomachs, New
York Tribune.
More titan 10,000 plated Soman coins,
dated between 800 A. D. and 800 A. D.,
bavo been found beneath a tiki at St.
Pabu, rini8terre. Tbo question la, Were
these the result of a queer private enter
prise, or did Valerian, Diocletian and
other oinperors play oil those platod im
itations for tbo true coin of the realm?

IN its first stages, can bo successfully
checked by tho prompt use ot Ayor's
Cherry Pectoral. Even Jn the later
periods of that disease, the cough is
wonderfully relieved by this medicine.
" I have used Ayer's Cherry Pectoral
with tho best effect in iny practice
This wonderful preparation once saved
my life. I had a constant couch, night
sweats, was greatly reduced in flesh,
and given up by my physician. One
bottle and a half of tho Pectoral cured
me." A. J. Eidson, M. D MMdleton,
Tennessee. j
" Several years ago I was severely-ill.
Tho doctors said I was in consumption,
and that thoy could do nothing for me,
but advised me, as a last resort, to try
Ayor's eherry Pectoral. After taklug
this medlcluo two or throe mouths I
was cured, and my health remains good
to tho present day." James Birchord,
Darlen, Conn.
" Several years ago, on a passage Jiomo
from California, hy water, I contracted
so sovere a cold that for somo days I
was confined to my state-room, and a
fihynlolan on lioard considered my life
n dnnger. Happening to have a bottlo
of Ayer's Cherry Pectoral, I used It
freojy, and uy lungs were soon restored
to a healthy condition. Since then I
havo Invariably recommended tlds prep
